Italian Teacher Cuts Off Noisy Kid's Tongue

From the peculiarosities site...

An Italian teacher has been suspended by her school in Milan after cutting off the tongue of a lively 7-year-old child with a pair of scissors, daily Corriere della Sera reported Tuesday.

The boy has since had his tongue stitched back but is afraid to go back to school. His parents say he suffers nightmares and runs away whenever he sees a knife. They are now suing the school for damages.

It's a sign of the decline of society isn't it, when a teacher can no longer cut off the tongue of a badly behaved child. It's political correctness gone mad...

Too many do gooders out there is what I say, Jason.

Thanks for bringing some reality to this Jason/Jac. I personally can't see anything wrong with this, as long as she used a clean pair of scissors obviously.
